API 650 carbon steel storage tanks nomenclature

The reticulated API 650 carbon steel storage tanks shell API 650 storage tank is an important large-span space structure with high safety. Generally, the large-scale API 650 storage tank with a diameter of 21-60 meters or a volume of more than 20000 cubic meters should adopt the reticulated shell technology, which has been widely promoted and adopted in the world and China's petrochemical industry for more than 30 years.

Before welding the API 650 carbon steel storage tanks, the professional skills of the welding personnel shall be fully assessed to ensure that the operators meet the corresponding welding qualifications. According to the technical standards, scientific and feasible process requirements are actually formulated. In the process of welding the edge plate of API 650 carbon steel storage tanks, electric welding is required on one side of the edge plate, so that the edge plate has a free shrinkage effect and greatly reduces the residual stress of the welding seam.

The API 650 carbon steel storage tanks outer wall shall be designed for the purging and operating pressure of the space between the inner and outer tank shells and for the loading from the insulation, the pressure of wind forces, and the roof loading.
The outer tank bottom, shell, and roof shall have a minimum nominal thickness of 3/16 in. (7.65 lbf/ft2) and shall conform to the material requirements of Q.2.3.
